Funny, but Windows 7 and 8 send different PMKIDs. Both are calculated incorrectly. This leads to a Hashcat Status of Exhausted, not Cracked.
Windows 7
Windows 8
The correct PMKID, as you mentioned, is ca5396d611cf330aebefd48ebbfb0e63
I prefer to use the older version of Hashcat (v5.1.0) because it runs much faster on my 10-year-old laptop than the newest version (v6.2.5)
it takes about 5 seconds
it takes about 16 minutes
P.S.
I tested
